THE MICHIGAN MEN
OUR CONGRESSMAN INTERVIEWED.
What the Statesmen say About Politics.
I4rin Reform. Commercial tatoa-
Ford fasors a Tax on Ios Geo
aud whisky.

WAsHIssroS. Dec. The Post prints
today a column OF interviews with Michi-
gan Congressman now here-Messrs. Chip
man, Whiting, Ford and Cuteheon. Chip
man is ia general terms. urging harmony
between the two Democratic wrongs and
predicting gradual changes toward revenue
reform. He closes with the statement that
the Democrats will go into next falls can
vass solidly harmonious and without dis
seBsion.
Congressman Writings views are signifi-
can't. coming from a salt manufacturer
from = salt country. he says: The tariff
ought to be reduced, and undoubtedly Will
be. The free list should be extended.
/ should not seriously oppose the
placing OF salt aud lumber on
the free list, though they are strong inter
eats in my State. If corresponding conces-
sions are made ia other directions. For in
stance, our manufactures want cheap coal
and would like 10 have the tariff on coal
abolished There Is plenty OF room TO re-
duce taxation without causing serious dis
turbance. Tne tobacco tax should De re-
dnced. though not entirely removed, and
would ike 10 see a lowering OF the duty on
sugar. | am in favor of postal telegraph
started on a sound basis There is room for
part Of the surplus in improving navigation
on the lakes. The tonnage passing through
the canal al SAult Ste. Marie last June ex-
ceeded that OF the Saez canal for the same
month by . per cent, and within few
years will exceed IL annually
Congressman Ford ridicules the idea OF
taxing the tax from whisky and tobacco
and leaving il on food and clothing. He
declares that Michigan manufacturers want
the tobacco tax maintained. He says: Il
believe the revenues of the government
ought to be reduced by taking the tax from
the Decessaries of liie." He thinks Cleve-
land IS very strong in Michigan. aud that
he will not only De renominsted, but Will
carry the State of Michigan aud oe elected
by an overwhelming majority.
Gen. Cutcheon vigorously favors spend
ing q good share of the surplus on improv-
ing the Great Lakes. He will support the
grand army pension bill and compromise
revenue reduction. he says: II am op-
posed to Canadian reciprocity. 1t is not an
even trade. Commercial union and politi-
cal union should 90 together. Canada
should not be allowed the advantage of free
trade with the States unless she Is also
willing To accept the responsibilities OF
statehood" ;"
